    Hey Paul, I can show you credit card bills for when I travel to the events, that does not mean I do it for free.

    Basically, IA is right because you do it for free (supposedly) and NOPI is wrong for making money to stay in buisness.

    Hell yeah I shut it down. You guys wanted to charge us after we gave IA a booth for free at the 2005 NOPI Nationals. How is that a good deal for us? Fair is fair, and an even trade is just that, not give me mine for free and you can pay for yours.

    Censor the word NOPI on IA and the forum will have nothing to talk about except Thong Thursdays.

    If I censor the word IA on any forum or ours, nothing would change in them.

    bahhhhhhh you got to be joking... NOPI is the last topic of conversation throughout the entire year until NATS rolls around. and if you did anything w/ your forum it wouldn't make a dent... your forum is DEAD

    Started over the winter, started over 5 years ago. Do the math.

    2 Parking spaces? It was a 20'x20' booth on the vendor midway. There has to be reason why Mark does not answer your emails. Maybe it is because he reads all of the forums and crap that people spew about NOPI and the NDRA.

    I will make the statement again, I do not work for NOPI the parts company, but rather the events company.
    James did not get involved in any of this crap because he did not care what the forums thought. I guess that is my downfall, I will fight for what I think is right.

    I don't post shit about our events on here, you have me confused with someone else I guess.

    On a side note, did anyone see the Maxxis tires/ATD drift featuring the Batlground cars at the 2006 NOPI Nationals?

    Paul, now that is posting about events.

    You work for NOPI any comments you make represent the company you work for when you speak for them... and the space was for two cars to be parked right next to each other...

    and now we know how you guys work, YOU PERSONALY DELETED MY POST ABOUT OUR EVENT, then you guys ignore emails/vm, and come on here to POST about your event. real professional

    all this shit doesn't matter it only makes your company look bad and helps our stats. ( over 2000+ views already )

    bahhhh DUDE you obviously don't know what went on w/ the deal w/ mark... he gave me 2 parking spaces for me to advertise the site for giving him an ENTIRE forum dedicated to NOPI NATS if you like i still have it available w/ all of the threads, i saved it incase we wanted to work out the same deal.

    also what you have yet to explain is how you deleted my 1 thread on your boards and then when i sent email/vm to mark he can't even respond to me; yet you guys are quick to post up your event info on the boards.

    I thought of this other day. The only time any "representative" of NAPI ever shows up on this site is for themselves and nothing else. NAPIGUY has about 5-6 posts. IA has been up for about 5-6 years. Hmmmm. The NAPI show is once a year. I wonder......... Later, QD.
